Communitas 1 Olympian Erin Hamlin to address 2014 Commencement Erin Hamlin will deliver the keynote address at Mohawk Val- ley Community College’s Spring Commencement, which will be held Friday, May 16 at 4 p.m., at the Utica Memorial Auditorium. A three-time Olympian, Hamlin is the first-ever American to medal in singles luge. The theme of Hamlin’s remarks to MVCC graduates and their families will be, “You’re never too small to hit the big stage.” “Erin Hamlin is a great local success story and an inspira- tion,” said MVCC President Randall J. VanWagoner, Ph.D. “We are honored that she will be speaking to reflect on the accom- plishments and potential of our graduating class of 2014.” Hamlin opened her luging career in 2005. Her first major international victory was the gold medal in the women’s singles event at the 2009 FIL World Luge Championship in Lake Placid, NY. Hamlin’s victory marked the first time in 99 races that a German woman was not the top finisher. Hamlin finished 12th in the women’s singles event at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. She was selected in December 2009 to compete at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, and named Athlete of the Year by USA Luge multiple times. Her bronze-medal finish in Sochi was part of an historic seven-medal haul by the USA sliders, a high-water mark for the team that has set even loftier goals for the 2018 Winter Olympics. Hamlin is a native of Remsen, New York. Her parents, Eilleen (’81) and Ron (’86) Hamlin, are MVCC alumni. More information on Erin Hamlin can be found at Twitter@ ErinHamlin, Facebook.com/OfficialErinHamlin, and ErinHamlin. com. MVCC Welcomes NASA TINES Program The Center for Corporate and Community Education and the STEM Center is pleased to welcome the TINES (Teach- ing Inquiry using NASA Earth System Science) program to the MVCC Campus this summer.

Dissertation Advisors: Mark Glickman & Xiao-Li Meng Kathryn McKeough a A Tale of Two Multi-Phase Inference Applications Abstract Multi-phase inference refers to any sequential procedure where the results, or some realization of the output of one phase, is fed into another phase. Multi-phase models are becoming more prevalent in applied statistical analyses as data gets bigger and more complicated. They offer a solution for complex statistical problems where modeling all parameters jointly has its limitations. We explore two applications, one in sports analytics and astronomy, where we choose multi-phase models to explore our data. Part 1 - Predicting Athlete Performance: It is often the goal of sports analysts, coaches, and fans to predict athlete performance over time. Methods such as Elo, Glicko, and Plackett-Luce based ratings measure athlete skill based on results of competitions over time but have no predictive strength on their own. Growth curves are often applied in the context of sports to predict future ability, but these curves are too simple to account for complex career trajectories.
